However, in order to outshine the competition, you must be aware of the latest developments being made in the mobile apps world.

Mobile Payment Integration

After the digital evolution and increasing trend of online payments, it is the turn of mobile phones for making and receiving payments. More and more popular brands as well as startups are opting for this technology evolution to enable customers pay using their mobile phones. This has led to a rapid increase in the demand for mobile payment integration through apps.

AMP – Accelerated Mobile Pages

AMP is a recent initiative by Google in collaboration with Twitter, LinkedIn, WordPress and Pinterest to accelerate the speed of mobile pages. It inspires developers to create appealing website and apps with low bounce rate, fast loading speed, and impressive performance across all devices. AMP is an open source project with the intention to make web better for all.

Smart technology for use

As the focus is on creating smart cities and homes driven by technology, millions of businesses are ready to adopt the latest innovations to make it happen. Smart objects like AC, TV, refrigerator and other appliances are making way into the lives of people. Almost every appliance can be managed with the help of apps. If this was not enough, businesses are counting on the possibilities of using apps for switching off lights in the kitchen or check the home security, irrespective of their geographical location. Also, there are app controlled security tools to watch pets and kids which will trigger huge demands.
